I will be at my usual venue in the village of Ladybank.

I have been making lots of new pictures, jewellery pieces and trinket boxes for this year's event and I also have a Makers Market on Saturday 5th April to make for as well so I have been extremely busy.

You can find me at 

The Morningside Makers Market, 

Columcille Centre, 2 Newbattle Terrace, EH10 4RT 

Saturday 5th April

11-4pm

I will have a stack of Open Studio Brochures with me so you can collect your free copy there.

Some new makes include this picture in lovely soft subtle shades.

These brooches are made using Donegal Tweed which a absolutely love.

I have used buttons to accent them rather than my usual iridescent beads as I think the buttons suit the soft colors better.

 Donegal Tweed Brooches £12

Also available in my Etsy shop

Also new are there large Textile Heart Pendants.

I have printed the design onto cotton or felt fabrics and used large metal hearts with coordinating hand coloured centres to make a focal point.

I also have yet another mug design arriving on Monday along with some more cards and notebooks.

So you should find me well stocked if you make it along to the Makers Market on the 5th and I hope to have even more to delight you if you visit me during Open Studios.

I'll show you the new mugs on Monday :)
